1 Prologue
Sometimes there are things in life that we do not expect..
There are things that are suddenly coming and going in our life..
There are circumstances in which we go through and there are times when we regret it..
There are days in our lives that you want to give up..
There are times when you are mad and you want to hurt her, but because you have a golden heart, you will just forgive..
there are people who will tell you that you're nothing but they are the one who's really worthless.
There are people who will judge you but they do not really know you.
In this world, you have nothing to expect but yourself. You have no one else to approach if not yourself.
In this world, there are so many selfish people. No matter how selfish the people is.. they will judge you. they will judge you especially when you are ugly.
When you are ugly you have no friends..
When you are ugly you have no rights..
When you are ugly you have no money..
When you are ugly you are a bad person..
when you are ugly no one will love you..
When you are ugly you have no space in the world..
When I was young, I encountered cynicism and bullying. Physical or emotional, they still hurt me.
Ever since that I get tired of what they are doing.. I promised to myself that I will rise.. and you will remember me, you will remember that I am the one that you deceived.
I promised that I will change myself...I promised that I can get up.

ALEXIS POV'S
I am at the middle of my sleep when my phone suddenly rang....
"Hello?" I answer my cellphone when I see its caller ID.
"Hello Mackie, did I wake you up?" question from the other line.. It was Mama Mel.
Mama Mel is my manager, She holds my schedule that I will make for the shows. Live or on screen. She is like a second mother to me..
"No, mama Mel, It's okay.. what's the matter by the way? Why did you call me?" I told her, I don't want anyone to bother me when I am sleeping , but when it is mama Mel, it is fine with me, besides she will not call if it is not important. I love my work, that's why..
"Well darling, you have a show.. it is better if we talk personal, let's just see each other later... At the coffee shop, near at my place." mama Mel said.
I was a little nervous, She is not like this before..she will not going to hesitate telling it me by phone. maybe it is really an important project that's why she wants to tell it to me personally.
It is only 8:00 am, Mama Mel says that we are going to see each other by 11:30 So I still have a lot of time to waste..
I was lazy when I get up on my bed and head out of the room.
I saw in the dinning room my older brother, Alex.. He was already eating his breakfast.
He seems to have felt my presence So he stopped eating and stood up to greet me with hugs.
We are used to that, we can't afford not to greet each other
"Good morning our princess" My brother greeted and hugged me.
"Good morning brother, where is mom and dad" I reciprocated to him, at the same time asking where are our parents...
"They are already in the restaurant, because dad is needed in the kitchen because a chef is absent .. mom is in charge of the office"
"Ow, how about Alexius?" I am referring to our youngest brother ..
" I'm here sister " Alexius replied from behind me ..
"Good morning little boy," I pissed him off with a big hug followed by our older brother...
"I'm not a little boy sister, look I can already make a baby now if you want" he replied
"Shut it Alexius! Work hard first" Kuya said to him So he kept quiet
We are quietly eating breakfast when I think of saying goodbye to them ..
"I'll go ahead, I'm still going to the mall today and Mama Mel and I will talk this afternoon so I won't eat here ..." I said goodbye to them.
"I am also brother, after here I will also leave, I have a new case to handle now , I will study more "My youngest brother demanded.
"Ohh let's all leave, I'm leaving too." Kuya answered us.
Mom and dad are chefs,
Kuya is a doctor,
Alexius is an lawyer
And me is an artist.
That's Our jobs So we are all busy.
It's already 11:00 am and I already bought what I bought ..
Of course it took me a while because there were people blocking the way to take pictures and autograph ..
11:20 when I arrived at the restaurant where Mama Mel and I would meet.
Mama Mel is not here yet. So I ordered the food for the two of us..at exactly 11:30 when she arrived ..
"You're always early Alexis "opened up to me by mama Mel ..
"You know me well Mama Mel, it's better early than late haha" I replied to her ..
"So .. what is it mom Mel?" I asked her..
"Hmmm. So I won't go around anymore .. you have a concert and a movie to make .. It is not hidden from the knowledge of the big boss that you are a pure Filipina, so you are the one he paired .. "
That's when I got nervous ..
"So mama, what are you trying to say?"
"I'm trying to say that you are you are making a concert and a movie .. This command is from the big boss Alexis You cannot refuse .. the problem is .. you will do 12 concerts and 10 movies You will star." she says
"WOW!! that was very awesome. I have so may projects to do!! what is the problem with that?"
"The problem is .. you will do all that in the Philippines "
There I was stunned.
Philippines ... The country I did not expect to return after I went through.
a few years ago I forgot all the things I went through there.
And it looks like this year I will tread again in the country where I was born ..
I did not expect this to happen so quickly,
I do not know if I am ready to return or not ..
But I only know one reason to completely forget because until now I still remember everything I went through ..
The only way is If I can afford to stay in the country Where I experienced that ..
"When will that start?" I asked Mama Mel.
"A month from now"
"Okay, I'll do it." My answer
"Are you sure?"she asked
"Yes, maybe this is also a way for me to completely forget."
15 years ... 15 years since I first met him .. a few years have passed and a lot has happened between the two of us. I never thought I would come back again .. I hope I can handle It .. I really hope I can finally moved on.
